Moomba Beach

Description:

• This casual, fun spot is essentially a couple of giant palapas on the beach with a party every day and night. "No shirts, no shoes, no problem" is the slogan here. At night, live bands play beneath a giant Heineken beer chandelier. Happy hour is from 6 to 7pm daily; the bartenders pour drinks from 10am until very late. Try the Tropical Treasure (melon and banana liqueurs, coconut cream, and pineapple juice). Food is served until 11pm. This may be the only bar on the island that has showers and beach chairs, so don't worry about the tanning lotion and sand.
